SKIMMING RENDER - Code: PBSK
Skimming Render PBSR is a factory mixed adhesive render. PBSR adhesive render can be universally applied to outdoor areas and is designed for use as a mesh coat plaster on PBMR20.
SKIMMING RENDER can also be used to straighten previous coats of plaster before the application of a finishing render.
Preparation:
The substrate must be of sound nature, free from dust and loose particles, from release oils and other contaminants which could affect adhesion and bonding strengths of subsequent coatings. High or unevenly absorbing substrates should be sealed with Masons Plastabrick's masonry sealer prior to the application of SKIMMING RENDER, to control the absorption of water from the plaster into the substrate.
Application:
SKIMMING RENDER is suitable for commercial plastering machines or manual application (drill mixed only).
SKIMMING RENDER can be used as a mesh coat onto PBMR20. Fibreglass mesh can be trowelled into this coat (2-4mm thickness is usually sufficient) ensuring that is overlapped at least 100mm where it is joined.
SKIMMING RENDER can also be used as a straightening coat. Masons Plastabrick Limited recommends the use of Fibreglass reinforcing mesh. Ensure that fibreglass mesh is overlapped at least 100mm where it is joined.
Coverage:
Depending on the substrate, a 25 kg bag of SKIMMING RENDER yields approximately 6 square metres at 2.5 mm thickness.
Important:
Do not under any circumstances add foreign substances other than clean water to premixed mineral plasters.
Do not add further water to SKIMMING RENDER /water mixture later than two hours after original mixing time.
Allow 1 day/mm drying time prior to applying further coats of plaster. If necessary, contact Masons Plastabrick Limited for further information on drying times.
